Andrew Haug'is a radio announcer and heavy metal musician from Melbourne, Australia.
He is one of the most prominent figures in Australia's largely underground heavy metal scene.
Haug started his radio career doing the heavy metal music program The Hard Report for Melbourne community radio station 3RRR. He was most notable as the presenter
of the heavy metal music program Full Metal Racket (formerly 3 Hours of Power and currently The Racket) on Australian alternative music radio station Triple J,
which he hosted from 2001 to 2011.
He has stated that he did not leave Triple J by his choosing.
Haug also plays drums with outfit Contrive, which also features his identical twin brother Paul Haug on lead vocals/guitar.
In 2002, Haug was convinced by Australian comedian John Safran to appear on his SBS television series John Safran's Music Jamboree.
His appearance involved a Christian psychic who monitored him during a radio broadcast and at a Contrive live gig, claiming she could see "dark spirits" who were supposedly attracted to him due to his interest in heavy metal music.
Andrew has also been a guest programmer for the ABC's music video show Rage as well as MTV's Headbangers Ball.
Andrew was born in Melbourne, Victoria, along with twin brother Paul.
Haug started working in radio in 1993, with a local demo segment on Melbourne's 3RRRFM Metal Show.
